Spanish is pretty simple. At least toI still read, but the pronuciation isn't really that bad once you hear it enough. Though region accents can trip me up. Mexican's version of spanish is very hard to understand. Their pronuciation and heavy use of slang makes it hard for me to understand them. Since moving to Philly I hear a lot of Puerto Ricans talk spanish and they seem easy to understand, even if they talk fast. I guess they just pronounce things differently.


A mexican friend of mine said puerto rican spanish is more "Americanized".

I like Puerto Ricans. We have a lot of Mexicans in NC. Puerto Rican spanish imo sounds a lot cleaner and sometimes formal.

I'm french and I can say that the easiest language for me to learn was english. I can understand some spanish and I'm sure that with a little practice I'd be able to speak it.

Ahh etait elle amusement?

For me it has to be German and French. My dad always has a saying "If you know English, you can learn German. If you know Latin, you can learn French and Spanish" Which is true. A big majority of Western European languages evolved from Latin. And English did evolve from German in a lot of areas. So what do you think?
I wonder what rules languages because I really suck at it.

it doesn't even appeal to me to learn new languages. except when I visit countries. then I have my language 101 book, and say, "hola!" or, "bonjourno!!!" or "banos, amiga?"

then after that i'm done.

when we go to the UK, especially London, those folks speak very very strange.

we coudnt even understand it, and it's supposed to be English.

What's the language of love @bullshit ? If you say french, i'll smack you upside the head 😛

French is the language of love.

Trust me, when you speak it and/or spend enough time around the language, it's not as romantic as you think lol

Any Latin language imo.
French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese - yes.

Romanian - lol, no.
Ironically I believe it's easier for an Italian to learn Romanian rather than French.

Now question for you is: why would anyone want to learn Romanian?

Well one very important reason...

You need to be able to make polite conversation with pickpocketers (btw do you guys still have that announcement playing over the subway in Rome about "Watch out for Romanians?". Truly the epitome of class Italy is)

Eh...semantics.

I told you the real reason. It's that Giorgio that comes up in your life at some random moment 😈
